GDR health: Lecture with Dr. Niemann in the Peter-Weiss library

Next Sunday, June 30, 2024, the Peter Weiss Library Hellersdorf will be a lecture with Dr. med. Heinrich Niemann in the "Bunten Haus", Hellersdorfer Promenade 14, 12627 Berlin. Dr. Niemann will talk about his diverse professional experience under the title "Polyclinic - or what you could learn from the GDR healthcare system". As a former city council for healthcare in Marzahn-Hellersdorf, he has a deep insight into the health system of the GDR and also actively worked in the field of environmental protection and ecological urban development.

dr. Niemann, a respected doctor, has also made a contribution to the preservation and renovation of Biesdorf Castle, for which he received the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany in 2021. His extensive expertise and practical experience make him an interesting conversation partner for everyone who wants to learn more about health care in the former GDR and about what can be learned from it for the future.

The event also offers the opportunity for visitors to ask questions and bring in their own experiences. Entry is 5 euros, reduced 3 euros. Interested parties can reserve their place by phone at (030) 99 28 25 25 or by email.

In terms of local effects, it is important to mention that Marzahn-Hellersdorf is a special district in Berlin that was strongly shaped during the GDR period. The healthcare system played an important role for the residents of the region, and Dr. Niemann's insights could therefore be particularly interesting for those who are interested in the history of the district and the development of the healthcare system in the GDR.

It is also worth mentioning that the renovation of Biesdorf Castle, where Dr. Niemann was significantly involved, was an important cultural project in the region and had a positive impact on the local community.
